haven't blogged for so long!
just to keep this blog alive, everything had been rather rough lately. my work's been insane. the boss has been a major bitch/bastard. like, seriously. i love my kids and students and teaching but honestly, i think some people are totally fucked up. i mean, i am ME for bloody god's sake. why do they keep wanting to change me. and worse, treat me like a student because i was once a student there?
anyway, something sweet happened today!
Mervyn had wanted to change a car for sometime. he was sick of his red mazda 6 and was thinking of a new car. i suggested a bmw although he wanted an audi. and he finally gave in and decided a bmw. next, was the series of the car. he wanted a 5 year old series 5 bmw while i suggested a less than 3 year old bmw 3 series. then he wanted a black metallic color and i wanted a dark blue bmw.
what we wanted in our minds were totally different. and i even brought this up to shane and jeanne and we were all thinking that he might just be asking for the sake of asking. i mean afterall, it's his car. it's boys toys and women have absolutely no say in it.
he promised to bring me for a test drive weekend after weekend but we never got to do it cause i have been feeling really upset over work everyday and he brought me out to get fresh air and picnics in the park. and finally he said we would do the test drive over this weekend.
then for some strange reason, he had been on the phone secretly and msging all the time while we were out this week. and i was beginning to think he was probably msging someone else. and then he kept asking me what time i was free for lunch and finish work today. which i honestly felt it was weird because i finish early today and he said he wanted to finish work early too to take a break from work.
so today, at 12.30pm, he called me to tell me he wanted to go out for lunch and if i were free. i went to the foyer to wait for the same usual red mazda. my students were with me so i had them to look out for me too as we were chatting. and suddenly, a car started honking. i thought it was an insane parent and the guard was gesturing to me. and i refused to look further because i see a dark blue color car instead of a red mazda and said 'nope! not the car i'm waiting for' AND
i see M grinning and waving at me! i was totally stunned! and it took me another 3 mins to stand next to the car and staring at it before i got on and had a major outburst. Apparently, he decided to choose the car i had wanted and suggested, dumped his idea and bought it! he knew my dream car had been a bmw and he also knew i had been in the dumps lately and badly wanted to cheer me up. hence, he had been on the phone secretly with the car agent to arrange the car. Once he had his car, he drove right down to school to surprise me and had me be his first passenger (:
of which, i was so surprised and speechless! and then i just had to whip out my phone and text jeanne and stella and then called mum. i could hardly contain my excitement and JUST had to let them all out. thank goodness for all of the girlfriends and mum or else i would have died in the car due to hyperventilation. haha yes true true, it's not like he bought the car for me but he promised that if i will get to drive his car while he's away.
like...OH MY GOD! 2 years ago when he had his red mazda, it took him 2 years to finally let me drive his car, in the carpark, to gain his trust, before i get the chance to actually finally drive it around singapore when we go out. and now he allows me to drive MY dream car.
and after that, to celebrate his new big ticket item, we headed down to town in his new sweet. both of us gushing to one another about the greatness of the car, both of us feeling ecstatic and euphoric. and more importantly, he was really glad i was so surprised and his planned had worked. continued our gushing at Canele and walked around ion.
wow. i know it sounds ridiculous that i'm actually narrating all these down but i'm really ecstatic over the car. because that silly cow actually bothered to listen to me and bought the one i had wanted (i might as well have it but we both decided that it's best that he gets the car and he drives me around. which i promise you, i'm perfectly fine with that arrangement)
but yeah! ok excitingggggggggg!

(:
